So here are some pics of "the belly" on Sunday. You can definitely see that along with a huge-mongous belly I am also getting pretty puffy in the face too! Let's hope that this is a sign that Will is going to make an appearance soon. Things are continuing to go very well but I did end up with a bit of a scare yesterday by becoming dehydrated. I went quite a while without feeling any action from Will wiggling around in my belly ... as Pete said, I left him to swim in the shallow end and he didn't have room for his normal antics. After a rush visit to the doctor I have proceeded to drink copious amounts of water (at least for me) to ensure that the little wiener has lots of room to roam!!

This picture scared me as I usually think of Koda as a pretty big dog (he is the biggest of 5) ... but next to me he is puny!! Eeeks ... big Momma!! :)

Sunday was Pete and my One Year Anniversary!! We actually beat the baby ... hahaha!! This was my breakfast in bed ... isn't it sweet!!

So it has been almost a month since I have updated ... I guess I am not very good at the whole "blogging" thing. I think it might be because for some reason I feel the need to have a photo to post with every update. Hmmm? Maybe if I can get over that then I will be more consistent.

So anyway, things are going very well. I am absolutely gigantic and it is getting harder by the second to move around without grunting and groaning but I am loving being able to feel my little Will moving around all the time. Before I felt the baby I wondered if I might be weirded out by having this "thing" inside me moving around, but it is something that I think I might miss. No matter where I am I get to enjoy his movements ... I am never without him and for now I cherish that. ;)

I am up to weekly appointments at the Doctor and Pete and I just had our 3rd Prenatal class on Tuesday. Of course the shopping never ends ... but I think my Mom and I are being much better behaved. Only buying things we REALLY need!! ;) I have to admit that I did buy some more maternity clothes yesterday (yes, I have received the big heck from all those around me) ... but I bought stuff that I figured I could use for the first couple of months after the birth. Keep your fingers crossed cuz that is my justification!

On a positive note, my sister Candace, came home from Thailand a month early so will be here for sure when Will is born. I am happy that she will be here to share this with me.

About Me

I am a first time Mommy to Willem Peter ... it is both the most incredible and most exhausting thing I have ever done. We live in Calgary, Alberta with Pete and Zane. I dream of warm beaches, kisses from the poochies, lots of reading and coffee! I love living close to my family and am so thankful for them every day.
